Instructions

  • In a small bowl, whisk the marinade ingredients.
  • Lightly score the chicken breasts on the diagonal, on the smooth (skin) side, making 3 or 4 evenly spaced slashes each about ¼ inch deep.
  • Put the chicken in a shallow medium bowl, add the marinade, and turn the chicken to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours, turning the chicken occasionally.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients.
  • Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp and the fat renders, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain. When cool enough to handle break into coarse pieces.
  • Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350° to 400°F).
    Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (400°F).
  • Brush the cooking grates clean. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip back into the bowl to avoid flare-ups. Grill the chicken, smooth (skin) side down first, over direct medium heat , with the lid closed, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 165°F, 8 to 12 minutes, turning once or twice. Remove from the grill, and rest at room temperature, indoors, for 3 to 5 minutes. When cool enough to handle, thinly slice on the diagonal.
